About the Stars
The Stars (22-26-10) lost 5-2 at Winnipeg Tuesday. The Stars rallied from a 2-0 deficit to tie the game in the second period, but Winnipeg's Patrik Laine scored the game-winning goal with 5:07 remaining in the third period.
"I have to stand here and tell the same story too many times," said Stars coach Lindy Ruff. "I thought we did a heck of a job, we didn't spend a lot of time in our end, and we made a few mistakes here and there. But I thought our guys played a hell of a game. I can't criticize them for that game."
The loss was the sixth in the past seven games (1-6-0) for the Stars.
John Klingberg, Patrick Sharp, and Jason Spezza did not practice on Wednesday.
"We'll see," Ruff said. "More maintenance but we've got a few banged up guys. We'll wait and see what tomorrow brings. "
Thursday's game concludes a three-game road trip for the Stars.
Injuries: D Johnny Oduya (ankle), RW Ales Hemsky (hip) and C/LW Mattias Janmark (knee) are on injured reserve.
